~ LORD MAYOR SAID TO BE SHAMMING -- SiNN FEIN BULLETINS PICTURE LORD MAYOR AS DYING BY INCHES FORTIETH DAY OF FAST The London News Says McSwiney Is Perfectly Well, But Sulky And Balks At The Questions He Is Asked London. — The most sensational charges, amounting practically to the bald statement tliut Lord Mayor Me Swiney of Cork is shamming in his hunger strike in Broxton jail were made by the Evening News, which claims to have its information “from a trustworthy source.” In absolute contradiction of the Sinn Fein bulletins, which picture the lord mayor as dying by inches, as very weak aml as fast approaching the final col¬ lapse, The News declares that th, prisoner is perfectly well, but sulkj and "not inclined to answer ques* lions. The paper adds: "And he sleeps most of the night, from 10:30 onward, his temperature is 97, pulse 18, and varies from weak to regular. In tlie afternoons he is able to sit up in bed and be washed. He seems to have srti fieient strength to assist in the proces He is able to talk a good deal ani reads newspapers with interest.” Of course this is vigorously denied by the lord mayor’s friends. Seamus O'Brien, foi instance, is indignant at the report, and says that nothing bus passed MacSwiney’s lips but water and medicine designed to counteract the gastric juices, and tire sacred wa¬ tt r used in communio n widen he re ceives every morning The question whether MacSwiney is being fed is answered by the home oftTce with "if he is we do not know it.” In this connection it is out that it would lie almost impossi ble for any one to administer 11011115111 - tnent without the attending physicians becoming aware of it, and the govern¬ ment officials argue if the doctors ascertained that the lord mayor was getting any food whatever, the entire sfefets of his earlier starvation would be nullified.
